Owen and Duncan, I am in no way suggesting that one should not make a cover for an early edition, all I meant was that one should not attempt to construct an exact replica. You state, Duncan, that you have made a copy which would not fool a collector - I have no problem with this. Owen, your wrappers are "Cape-style" - again as long as this is obvious I really don't see a problem.
A 1930 wrappered first does indeed cost pieces of eight - around six or seven thousand English pieces at the current market price.
